Fics like best friends, kidneys, and other things you can survive losing

"We were also concerned about possible organ damage, particularly since you only have one kidney, but your ribs took the brunt of the impact," the doctor tells him. "We'll know more when the swelling from the penetrating wound goes down." Ha, Buck thinks. Penetrating. "Wait," Eddie says. "That's not right. Buck has both his kidneys." The doctor consults the chart again, her eyebrows drawing together. “I’m sorry, Mr Buckley, is there an error in your medical history? I have it right here that you only have your right kidney, is that correct?" "Ye-es," Buck says. He can feel Eddie’s gaze on the side of his face and studiously avoids it. "What?" Eddie says. "How did I not know this? When did you lose a kidney, was this when you were a kid?" "Uh..." Buck says. "Aha. Last year." Eddie's face shifts from perplexed to horrified to thunderous all within about two seconds. It would be funny to see his stoicism so rattled under different circumstances. "When I was in Texas?" . Buck is determined not to fall back on old coping mechanisms after Eddie leaves for Texas. So he invents a new one: organ donation.
